Palm\Trackpad protectors for the new MBP?

[Habusho]

I used to have a really nice Moshi palmguard protector on my one previous gen MBP. I'm wondering if the new MBP has the same measurements etc for me to use the same palmguard protector that they sell. Anybody have any idea?

 

[squeeks]

no its quite a bit bigger

I've been wandering is the trackpad actually bigger, or did it just absorb the space of the button?

I don't think I've ever seen a notebook with a palmrest protector on it. And yes the trackad is much larger than the old one.

Well, you'd freak out like I did when you see the metal paint start wearing away on the palmrest. So, no other manufacturers make palm protectors for the new models eh?

You'll just have to wait for Moshi to release one for the new MBP's. Sigh, more waiting...lol

The trackpad is about 1/4-1/2 inch wider than the previous gen and the actual tracking area is 1/3 larger than the previous. The trackpad is also ~1/2 in deeper than the previous (including button space)
